Slated from Friday night into now Sunday perhaps, there's a possibility that "this storm could produce heavy snow, strong wings and significant coastal flooding," according to a statement by the weather service.

"Staten Island likely will get plowable snow in excess of 6 inches," said Paul Walker, senior meteorologist with AccuWeather.com.

AccuWeather.com is calling for 8-12 inches for the borough.

Despite Walker saying the borough will likely be hit with at least a half-foot of blowing, drifting snow plus flooding driven by strong winds this weekend -- he said that is a small chance that the storm will slip off to the south of our borough.

But because it's too early to know the exact track the storm will take, it isn't definitely known how it will impact Staten Island and other parts of the East Coast.

"It does look like we're in for at least a significant snow storm," Walker said, adding, that we'll all have to get used to driving in the snow.

"This would be the first big storm for many places in the East this winter," Walker said.
